Linux desktop. It is based on the Linux 3.0
kernel, Busybox, Tiny X, and Fltk. The core

user has complete control over which applications
and/or additional hardware to have supported, be
it for a desktop, a nettop, an appliance, or
server, selectable from the online repository.

Release Notes: The theme for this release is refactoring. With the Core Project, one starts with the kernel 3.0.3 2.4MB and the core.gz 5MB. Core.iso 8MB is simply the kernel + core.gz; this is the foundation for user created desktops. TinyCore is simply the kernel + core.gz + Xvesa.tcz + Xprogs +fltk-1.10.tcz + (user's choice of Window Manager) + wbar. The original TinyCore becomes simply an example of what the Core Project can produce: a 12MB FLTK desktop.

Kerberos and AFS authentication tokens current.
Each hour it renews Kerberos tickets and

A bug that caused problems when using Kredentials to obtain initial tickets (as opposed to renewing tickets that had previously been obtained using kinit or PAM) was fixed. A bit nore testing is required. The old 0.9.x branch will continue to support for KDE 3.x if there's sufficient demand, but it won't generally get a lot of attention.

different formats.
